URFO Seed Grants |
The University Research Funding Opportunity (URFO) is an annual internal grant programs administered by Research and Sponsored Programs support the diverse range of faculty research and scholarship at 果冻传媒. See more info on the URFO page. |
ORCID ID |
Your persistent research ID, used in multiple places.听听and ensure it is tied to your publications. For help, contact听Wade Lee-Smith or your subject area librarian ().听 |
Sponsor Accounts |
Do you have the accounts you need with external funding agencies? NSF Fastlane, NIH ERA Commons and many other sponsor systems need an account for proposal submission. Your ORCID is useful and increasingly it (or something like it) is required! For guidance, contact your assigned grants coordinator. |
CITI Training |
果冻传媒 uses CITI to provide and track many types of training, including human subjects research, biosafety, export control, animal research, financial conflicts of interest (COI) and responsible conduct of research (RCR).. If you have a CITI account already established, please affiliate that account with "University of Toledo".听 You can be affiliated with more than one institution. Then update your member information to include your Rocket ID number and your 果冻传媒 email address. If you do not have a CITI account, please establish one. It's FREE. A helpful tutorial is available. Need assistance? Contact Dawn Miller. She can help you with resetting a password, getting your user name and a variety of CITI questions. |
CITI and IRB |
For your human subjects training courses to be reflected when you submit a protocol to an IRB, you will need to听contact someone in HRPP听to update your CITI email address in IRB Manager, the software used for protocol development and review. |
SciENcv |

The University of Toledo recommends using听, for program-specific guidance in creating a data management plan.听 Need help finding a data repository to cite in your plan? You can get lots of help a听, a searchable registry of research data repositories. Individual funding agencies also have specialized guidance on data management plans, see . |
